What You’ll Gain:

Cultural Awareness:

Effective Communication:

Communication is more than just words; it’s about connection. In the realm of te ao Māori, this means engaging with others in a way that is respectful and mindful of cultural context. You’ll learn the importance of greetings and farewells, karakia, waiata, pepeha and whakatauki. Correct pronunciation ensures that your interactions are both meaningful and respectful so you will learn tips on how to get it right.

Professional Protocol:

Professionalism is about building relationships based on mutual respect and understanding. In this session, you’ll discover the best practices for interacting with Māori colleagues, clients, and partners.

These include: reciprocity, collectivism, narrative and the values mentioned above, in action.
